I just finished the book Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk today. I expected so much more after I read the first story, but it's still a pretty decent read thereafter. It's the Canterbury Tales mixed in with Clue. The whole book keeps you attached, even though the main story is kind of goofy. Each side story will keep you wanting to read on and on to see just how twisted and messed up their lives really are. Is it worth the read? This is definitely worth reading. The detailed descriptions of gruesome scenes used by Palahniuk, will make anyone feel sick in the stomach for days. If disturbing and demented is what you want, with a funny spin on things, this is your book. 4 out of 5.
Enticing as Haunted was, I was quick to pick up Diary, another novel by Palahniuk. Just reading the synopsis and knowing that Chuck wrote it, my expectations are high for this one.
